2017 M2 with MPE, currently stock. IN the near future I'll be upgrading my downpipe to high flow cat and I'll be getting a BM3 tune. I'm not planning on turbo or fueling upgrades.

I'm more interested in minimizing turbo lag than maxing out power gains. What intercooler would you recommend for mainly street use?
I really like the Wagner Evo 2 Competition. It had minimal lag. The Evo 1 comp is smaller and should have even less lag. Some cheaper intercoolers are a design (bar and plate?) that generally adds more lag, but heat soaks slower. Tube and fin designs are less lag and cool down faster, but heat soak quicker, and more expensive.
